The woman in red and the man exchanged looks of hesitation.
The pill in front of them was said to be an antidote, but who knew if it was poison or not?
However, in the current situation, they had to make a choice.
In the end, after weighing the pros and cons, the two of them could only take the antidote.
After that, the two of them pushed the door open and walked in.
“Block the door first!” Luo Cheng said while glancing at the two of them.
After the two of them thought for a moment, they did as Luo Cheng said. Li Xiaoran didn’t hide. Instead, she sat on the bed and looked at the two people in front of her.
After the woman in red thought for a moment, she was the first to speak. “Sorry for disturbing you. We mainly want to discuss how to leave this place safely!”
Luo Cheng didn’t ask why he should believe them. Instead, he pondered for a moment.
“Since we’re going to cooperate, why don’t we be honest?!”
Luo Cheng said,
“My name is Luo Cheng, and this is my wife, Li Xiaoran. How should I address you guys?
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had not spoken before became emotional.
At this moment, he stared straight at Luo Cheng and asked in a trembling voice, “You’re Luo Cheng? Luo Cheng from Hele Village?”
When Luo Cheng heard the other party expose his background, he glanced at Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran sensed the man’s excitement, but there was no malice, so she nodded at Luo Cheng.
“You know me?” Luo Cheng asked.
The man was so excited that it was as if he had seen his family.
“I don’t know you, but I’ve heard of you! Brother Luo Cheng, you don’t know how difficult it was for me to find you. Every time I wanted to see you, something happened to me and I was taken away. Also, my senior brother is really mean. He could have brought me straight to you, but he left me there alone. I was unlucky enough to fall into the river and got washed away for more than ten kilometers.”
Luo Cheng was confused when he heard the other party’s words.
He recognized every word this person said, but he couldn’t understand them when they were combined.
“Wait, tell me slowly! You’ve heard of me? From whom?” Luo Cheng asked.
“My mentor? And my senior brother!” the man replied.
“Then who is your mentor? Who is your senior brother?” Luo Cheng continued to ask.
“My mentor is my mentor? As for my senior brother, you definitely know him. He’s Luo Han!” the man replied.
When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately thought of something.
“Your name is Wu Qinghe, right?!”
On the way back from the capital, Luo Han had mentioned someone called Wu Qinghe to Luo Cheng.
At that time, Luo Cheng didn’t care and forgot about it. Now that the man said that, he immediately remembered.
“Yes, yes, yes. I’m Wu Qinghe! Brother Luo Cheng, you know me?” Wu Qinghe asked happily.
When Luo Cheng heard that it was really Wu Qinghe, who Luo Han had mentioned, he immediately asked curiously, “I remember your senior brother telling you to wait for him in town! He’ll look for you when he comes back from his business. Why did you run out?”
“Don’t mention it. I was waiting for you at home. Unexpectedly, someone barged into my senior brother’s house one night. Out of curiosity, I followed this person to see what he was here for. Unexpectedly, after chasing him out, I lost track of him when I reached the river. Just as I was about to return the way I came, someone suddenly kicked me into the river. Then, I choked on the river water and blacked out. When I woke up, I was already very far away!” Wu Qinghe looked dejected when he mentioned this.
Luo Cheng had also heard from Luo Han about Wu Qinghe’s unluckiness, so he was speechless when he found out about Wu Qinghe’s situation.
“Since you guys know each other, that makes things easier! My name is Shu Ruyue and I came to the martial world to find some experts to spar with. Who knew that I would be trapped in the inn like this? I still have something urgent to do and it can’t be delayed. Let’s think of a way to get out of here first!” Seeing that the other party knew each other, Shu Ruyue was even more relieved and went straight to the point.
Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Do you two have a criminal record?”
With a bang, Shu Ruyue placed the sword in her hand on the table with a cold expression.
“Luo Cheng, what do you mean? Could it be that you suspect us of being wanted by the authorities?”
Luo Cheng glanced at Shu Ruyue and replied calmly, “I’m just asking you guys this first in order to confirm some things before I consider telling you guys what I’ve deduced! You just need to answer if you have a criminal record or not truthfully! ”
Wu Qinghe was the first to reply, “No. I’ve always been unlucky. I’m so unlucky that I even choke on cold water! But the strange thing is that I’ve never been arrested before!”
After Luo Cheng heard this, he turned to look at Shu Ruyue.
Shu Ruyue also realized that she had been a little rash just now, so she softened her tone slightly.
“Me neither. I’ve just started and haven’t found a fighting expert yet!” When Luo Cheng heard their words, he glanced at Li Xiaoran.
Li Xiaoran nodded, indicating that these two people were telling the truth.
This time, Luo Cheng was finally relieved.
“If I were you guys, I would stay here with us! If anyone wants to break in later, we’ll beat them away! As long as we hold out until tomorrow morning, we can leave safely!”
“What do you mean?” Shu Ruyue asked in confusion.
The reason the omclars did this is to rorce the suspect to appear. I think about it, how long can a person last without eating or drinking? Actually, the suspect wants to leave this place more than us! Therefore, we just need to be patient and wait. When the suspect exposes himself and breaks out, our suspicions will be cleared and we can leave safely tomorrow!” Luo Cheng said.
“Brother Luo Cheng, do you mean that the suspect will break out tonight?” Wu Qinghe immediately understood what Luo Cheng meant.
“If I’m not mistaken, that’ll be the case! There’s no chance during the day, so if he wants to run, he has to do it at night. Didn’t you come to us to discuss leaving previously because you wanted to break out of the encirclement at night?” Luo Cheng asked.
When Wu Qinghe and Shu Ruyue heard Luo Cheng’s analysis, they immediately nodded..
